Movie/Show: How To Train Your Dragon Name: Astrid Alias: Just Astrid I guess xD Age: 15 Gender: Female Height: A little over 5' (in the movie she looks slightly taller than Hiccup) Weight: 1-/shot Appearance:
A medium/long blonde beauty. She has light, bright blue eyes and bangs that cover the left side of her face. Strands of long blonde hair frame her face, coming in before the ears. Astrid wears a brown spiked headband which her bangs go over, but is over the left side of hair. Her thick blonde hair is normally worn in a braid that reaches midback, held together at the bottom by a brown piece of string. She wears a what appears to be a sort of woven greenish blue/green/brown top and a mahogany/faded scarlet skirt. The skirt is divided into 'plate' like pieces and underneath it is another brown skirt.. It's decorated with iron spikes and bird skulls around where a belt might be. She wears thread/bandage like elbow length glove type things that are fingerless. They're tied to her upper arms by another piece of brown string. She wears iron shoulder pads with more spikes and bird skulls. She also wears bluish black leggins under her skirt that go all the way down to her ankles, not that any one would know as she has large, furry, brown boots that go just a little under her knee.
Unlike the adults of her tribe she is lean and lithe, not the more muscular and stocky builds of the adults. Though she is lean, she is very strong, and though it might not appear so, muscular. Her favorite weapon is the double sided battle axe. She is seldom seen without it. Personality: Astrid is a determined girl, she tries hard, confident, and has her mind set on the prize. Courageous, and brave, typical viking traits. She's also smart and alert survival traits when it comes to fighting dragons. She's quiet skilled in training, fighting dragons and everything she sets her mind to appear to come easily to her, though it all starts with the determination and the stubborn set of her thoughts. Stubborn as she is, it's only natural she's suspicious, and she doesn't believe anyone has trained harder than herself. Astrid is also very violent natured, not to uncommon for her people, but not very like the fellow teens in her classes. Her favorite quote: "That's for everything else." You can only imagine the pain that, 'that' was. She's aggressive to a degree as well, in a fight, and when it comes to getting the truth. History: Training. All she'd ever done and known. Training to kill the fiercest of beast, the dragons. She'd always been the best of the youths at this skill, able to use brute force as well as wits, though not as witty as Hiccup. She strived to be the best, better than any of the other tribes people. And then one night, the dragons attacked once more. Taking off with livestock and burning huts and homes and food. She'd fought, sure, but she hadn't been able to down a dragon and finish it off. Mostly protecting the livestock and injuring those who came to close to her and the others fighting along side her. And then the dragons were gone, all of them left, the town was put out, and a group of vikings moved on to a fire a ways away, Astrid being one of them. And there, under a pillar, was a dragon. Hiccup hugging the pillar, his eyes shut tight. Seeing why the group was not back and the fire had not been put out, the other vikings appeared, only to see the same spectacle. And then Hiccup moved, his eyes surveying the dragon beneath him and then to the vikings lined up staring at him.
Jealousy. Hiccup was finally competition in Astrid's mind, and during the dragon classes, Astrid fought to outrun him to weapons and shield he was heading for. To her surprise Hiccup was no competition, not at all. She soon became head of the class, outdoing the other teens. And then finally, her day came to slay a dragon in the arena. What Changed: Never met Toothless, didn't have to pay to much attention to Hiccup in classes, so she wouldn't become suspicious, became head of the class instead of Hiccup, able to kill the dragon in the arena.
Family(if any)
- Mother: N/A
- Father: N/A
- Siblings: none
- Offspring: N/A
Friends: The teenagers of the tribe (though she picks on Hiccup he is still not in the 'enemy' category. Enemies: left to rp Plans: Meet up with Hiccup, get suspicious and stubborn as to how he killed the dragon... not much else, just to see where it takes her!
Sample Post:
Astrid walked away. Away from the ring and the crowd of congratulators. She wiped the dried smudged of blood from her face using the back of her hand, her clothes were singed, and the iron plates and spikes on her outfit had a reddish hint to their edges. The bird skulls decorating her attire had small cracks in them from where the heat had been to much. In the ring was a recently deceased monstrous nightmare. Around the arena were vikings hammered with excitement as well as those who had gotten to close to the iron mesh walls and had been singed as well. A nice slice ran on the dragon's neck, a missing piece to the puzzle of it's demise gripped firmly in Astrid's hand. She comed her bangs back with her hand, only to have them fall over her face once more. A scrawny shuffling brown figure was edging away from the huge group of people and Astrid caught up, falling into step with her fellow viking. She swore she heard a sigh.
"I guess we're even know." her voice was smug with pride.
"Uh huh. Darn." Astrid narrowed her eyes at the boy's sarcasm.
"You know, I woulda thought that someone who'd killed a dragon before, would get the second chance." Astrid shrugged, continuing to walk as Hiccup stopped the pieces of Iron he was carrying slowly starting to slide from his grip. Curious. Suspicion started to arise in Astrid. Not today. Tomorrow you'll find out. You celebrate today. she told herself firmly. She was an official viking and dragon slayer now, Hiccup wouldn't ruin it for her.
"Oh and Hiccup," Astrid strode back over to the teen, throwing a forceful punch to his arm, "That's for making me look stupid," and with the base of the palm she hit his forehead. "And that's for everything else." with that, she whirled around, the mahogany plates of her skirt, flying out at all sides, as she walked swiftly to the group of vikings that had been ready to congratulate her before. Her double edged battle axe swinging like the lollipop most kids would have, drying blood in the place of rainbow colors. But Astrid wasn't like those kids.
